Description

RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application is related to Chinese Application No. CN202223001930.8 filed on Nov. 10, 2022, and Chinese Application No. CN202223002129.5 filed on Nov. 10, 2022, the disclosures of which are expressly incorporated by reference herein.

FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE

The present disclosure relates to inflatable products, and particularly inflatable products including components formed of low ductility materials.

BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE

Inflatable products are light in weight and easy to carry and collect. They are not only suitable for temporary use, but, further, are being gradually used as normal day-to-day furniture. For example, inflatable beds are becoming more common as inflatable furniture for everyday use. To improve a user's comfort, inflatable beds may include double chambers. That is, inflatable beds may include an inner chamber and an outer chamber arranged so that the outer chamber is formed on the outer perimeter of the inner chamber. When in use, the user may set the air pressure of the outer chamber to be higher than that of the inner chamber, for example.

Additionally or alternatively, inflatable beds may include a top panel, a bottom panel, an enclosure belt, and an inner structure. The top panel, the bottom panel, and the enclosure belt form a chamber, and the inner structure is arranged in the chamber so that the inner structure's upper end and lower end are connected to the top panel and the bottom panel, respectively. To facilitate support at the edge of the inflatable bed to avoid said edge being too soft, the inflatable bed may also include an upper oblique panel and a lower oblique panel. The upper oblique panel is arranged in the chamber so that the upper edge of the upper oblique panel is attached to the top panel and the lower edge of the upper oblique panel is attached to the enclosure belt, and the lower oblique panel is arranged in the chamber so that the upper edge of the lower oblique panel is attached to the enclosure belt and the bottom edge of the lower oblique panel is attached to the bottom panel.

However, inflatable products are typically made of polyvinyl chloride (“PVC”) or thermoplastic polyurethane (“TPU”), each of which have a certain ductility. As such, when inflating the inflatable bed or similar inflatable product having double chambers, although the air pressure of the inner chamber and the outer chamber may be set to differing pressures, during such use the dividing structure between the inner chamber and the outer chamber may be extended under the action of the air pressure, so that the internal pressure between the inner chamber and the outer chamber tends toward being the same pressure. As such, the purpose intended to be achieved through the design of the double chamber inflatable bed is not achieved. Additionally, when the inflatable bed or similar inflatable product is inflated to a high pressure, upper and lower oblique panels are easy to deform in such a way that when the pressure of the corresponding product is reduced, the edge of the bed becomes too soft.

“Low ductility material” as discussed herein refers to one or more materials which collectively have a ductility value of 1%-30%.

No. 10,165,869 and PCT Published Application No. PCT/US 2023/025268 filed Jun. 14, 2023, the entire disclosures of which are expressly incorporated by reference herein.

An exemplary tensioning structure in accordance with the present disclosure utilizes thin and flexible string or wire-like strands which join two members, such as top panel 11 and bottom panel 12, to one another. The strands are firmly connected to the adjacent members, such as top panel 11 and bottom panel 12, via an intermediate material, such as a strip or sheet, and the intermediate material is in turn firmly connected to the adjacent members. The area of contact between intermediate material and the attached strands may be manipulated to impart a connection strength commensurate with the tensile strength of the strand. Similarly, the area of contact between the intermediate material and the adjacent member may also be manipulated to impart a member/tensioning structure connection strength commensurate with the aggregate tensile strength of all strands in the tensioning structure.

Turning now to FIG. 13, tensioning structure 1100 is shown joining top panel 11 and bottom panel 12. In the illustrated embodiment, tensioning structure 1100 includes upper and lower weld strips 1102 connected to one another by a plurality of substantially parallel strands 1104 that define a gap portion extending between a gap between upper and lower sheets 11, 12. The upper and lower weld strips 1102 are in turn welded to the upper material 11 and the lower material 12, respectively, such that forces urging upper and lower materials 11, 12 are encountered by tension in strands 1104.

Optionally, reinforcing strands may be provided along the longitudinal extent of weld strip 31 (i.e., substantially perpendicular to strands 32). Reinforcing strands, when provided, may be coupled to tensile strands 1104, such as by folding strands 1104 over reinforcing strands, tying reinforcing strands and strands 1104 to one another, or adhesively securing reinforcing strands and strands 1104 to one another.

The plurality of strands 1104 in the tensioning structure 1100 as shown in FIG. 13 are arranged such that the strands 1104 are substantially parallel to one another when strands 1104 are pulled taut (i.e., when weld strips 1102 are drawn away from one another represented as spacing 1120). In addition, adjacent pairs of strands 1104 may have even intervals therebetween, such that a substantially constant tensile strength of tensioning structure 1100 is maintained across the longitudinal extent of weld strips 1102. In an exemplary embodiment, strands 1104 may extend along the entire width of weld strips 1102, as illustrated in FIG. 13, such that a large area of contact between strands 1104 and weld strips 1102 is achieved. For clarity, FIG. 13 illustrate only a limited number of strands 1104 affixed to strips 1102 in this way, it being appreciated that all strands 1104 in a tensioning structure 1100 may be so affixed.

Turning to FIG. 14, a cross-section of an exemplary strand 1200 which may be used in tensioning structure 1100 is shown. Each strand 1200 may be a multifilament structure including at least two (illustratively, five) filaments 1202. Each filament 1202 may itself contain multiple filament yarns. Filaments 1202 may be twisted into a cable-like structure and may further include a binder or adhesive layer 1204 which retains an intended configuration of filaments 1202 relative to one another, and aids in fixation of strands 1200 to strips 1102. The filaments 1202 may define a weight of 50 Decitex (dtex), it being understood that dtex is defined as the mass of strand 1200 in grams per 10,000 meters of strand 1200. The filaments 1202 may be no greater than 1,000 dtex. Each strand 1200 may have a denier of at least 50D, it being understood that denier is the mass of filament 1202 in grams per 9,000 meters of filament 1202. The denier of each strand 1200 may be no greater than 2,500D. The overall diameter d (shown, e.g., in FIG. 14) of strand 1200 may be at least 0.10 and no greater than 0.14 mm. Additional details regarding exemplary strands and attachment structures, such as weld strips or weld sheets, are disclosed in PCT Published Application No. PCT/US2023/025268, the disclosure of which is expressly incorporated by reference herein.
